NOAA To Put Historical Maps & Instruments On Display
One of the agencies whose maps and instruments will be on display is the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey.

The USC&GS is now known as the National Geodetic Survey, which is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Thanks to retired member of NOAA for pointing out the mistake.
